Below are a few of the dental treatments that Dr. Weeks is proud to offer his patients.

The LANAP Laser

The LANAP® Procedure is an FDA-cleared, patented breakthrough technique to treat periodontal disease. It offers our patients a significantly less traumatic alternative to traditional periodontal surgery. LANAP® is the new standard for periodontal disease treatment. If you have been told that you need gum surgery or you have periodontal disease, this new technology replaces cutting of the gum tissue with a scalpel and does not require stitches. This means an easy recovery with minimal bleeding, which preserves gum tissue, reduces root exposure and sensitivity, and is reasonably priced as compared to traditional gum surgery. Dr. Weeks is fully trained and licensed to perform LANAP and is currently the only general dentist in Nash County that offers this procedure to his patients.

Dr. Weeks is highly skilled at saving dental implants that are failing due to gum disease or lack of integration with the surrounding bone. His combined skill and expertise allows Dr. Weeks to successfully treat and save implants that might have otherwise required extraction and replacement.

Dental implants are not only used to replace single missing teeth. Dr. Weeks uses Mini Dental Implants from 3M to place implant supported dentures, commonly called fixed dentures. Implant supported dentures allow denture wearers the stability and strength they need to live a normal life without the constant worry of dentures that click or move in the mouth.

Nitrous oxide is one option available to significantly reduce your dental fears and discomfort. Nitrous oxide is the most frequently used sedation method and works best for cases of mild to moderate anxiety. Nitrous oxide allows you to remain conscious and breathe on your own, with a sense of total well-being.

We offer the Opalescence Take Home Whitening Gel system for at home teeth whitening. The Opalescence system is only available through a dentist so that your treatment can be supervised from the initial consultation through completion. The Opalescence Whitening Gel is a sticky, viscous gel that will not irritate the gums. Plus, most formulations include Potassium Fluoride hich has been shown to improve oral health by strengthening the enamel and decreasing sensitivity. The Opalescence Whitening system can provide results in as little as one night, though most results are seen within a week.
